Time Plays
by Percival
Poems,
poetic letters, prose, plays, and autobiographical words … there is no lack of
playful words in Time Plays. The
first (limited) edition was published in 1999, and in August that year at
Shakespeare & Company, Paris, the author recited some of his Time Plays poems.
This new, illustrated, revised and enlarged edition has no limits.
One of the texts is a speech called “The Solar Consciousness Era”, and
at the end of the book you can read: ‘Who is a Human Being in Time’s Play?’
Once the Irish playwright Samuel Beckett wrote to the author (living in Stockholm, Sweden):
‘Best wishes for the future of Time Plays.’
Now the future is here and Time Plays.
